SFFilm is making big changes to accommodate the pandemic for its 64th Annual San Francisco International Film Festival to be held from April 9 through 18 that will include primarily online streaming but some in-person events at the Fort Mason Flix drive-in theater.
Screenings are being opened up for filmgoers from across the country. There will be new ways for audiences to connect digitally with artists and other festival-attendees through the
SFFilm website. The Festival's daring diverse lineup consists of 42 feature films, 56 short films and new this year five mid-length films. 41 countries are represented with 57% of the films helmed by female directors and 57% by BIPOC filmmakers. Still only a handful of the offerings have LGBTQ-related content.
